--- Begin Message ---Package: ucf Version: 3.001 Severity: normal ucf recommends debconf-utils, for debconf-loadtemplate. It uses debconf-loadtemplate to load the ucf templates: # Load out templates, just in case our template has # not been loaded or the Debconf DB lost or corrupted # since then. if test $(id -u) = 0; then if which debconf-loadtemplate >/dev/null 2>&1; then debconf-loadtemplate ucf /var/lib/dpkg/info/ucf.templates fi As a recommends, debconf-utils is not currently installed by default, so this code won't fire on most systems currently. But I'm looking at making tasksel install recommends by default (see #388290), and since nfs-common is standard priority and depends on ucf, if I do that, debconf-utils will be installed as part of standard. I'd prefer to avoid that, since it's 140k of utilities that were split out to a seperate package to _avoid_ having them unnecessarily installed by default. My question to you: Does ucf really need to recommend debconf-utils? How important is it that it have debconf-loadtemplate available? Would a suggests be more appropriate? -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.20-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages ucf depends on: ii cdebconf [debconf-2.0] 0.115 Debian Configuration Management Sy ii coreutils 5.97-5.3 The GNU core utilities ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.13 Debian configuration management sy Versions of packages ucf recommends: ii debconf-utils 1.5.13 debconf utilities -- debconf information excluded -- see shy jo

Closes: 424926 456241 456245 460868 464238 Changes: ucf (3.005) unstable; urgency=low . * Bug fix: "ucfq /path/to/file is broken", thanks to Niko Tyni. Applied the patch provided in the report. Closes: #460868 * Of course, this did not mean that the modified column was actually filled with valid values: A number of places we were not using the proper accessor methods, which added to the confusion. Fixed. Closes: #464238 * Add a new --debconf-template option to specify an alternate caller-provided debconf template for the user prompt. Heavy lifting done by Steve Langasek. This was apparently done to allow grub in Ubuntu to manage partial file fragments. Closes: #456241. * Use db_x_loadtemplatefile instead of debconf-loadtemplates for template loading, and depend on debconf (>= 1.5.19) | cdebconf for the implementation. Thanks to Steve Langasek. Closes: #424926 * Drop the Recommends: debconf-utils now that it's no longer used. * Instead of proceeding merrily on our way if the three way merge fails, we now leave the dest file unchanged, leave the mess in the new file (foo.ucf-new), tell the user about it, and abort the upgrade by exiting with exit 3. We still psit out an error about conflicts. Hopefully, this adequately resolves the bug.
